    Consumer's Guide To Health: Health Care Reform

    Health care reform probably requires little introduction. We're in the midst of some challenging discussions regarding the cost of health care, the quality of ihealth care, and the ability of the patient to access health care. Should the government be involved? What impact is reforming going to have on the average person? We've been exposed to a lot of misinformation, and a lot of diatribe. In this episode, we will discuss some of the issues facing successful health care reform - from the perspective of the provider, and the patient. Special guests: Dr. Quentin Lobb (anaesthesiologist, Norman, OK) and Robin Warnken (massage therapist and personal trainer, Austin, TX).
